The World Health Organization/United Nations Children's Fund Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative: Revised, Updated, and Expanded for Integrated Care (2009) identifies the need for expanding the guidelines originally developed for maternity units to include neonatal intensive care. For this purpose, an expert group from the Nordic countries and Quebec, Canada, prepared a draft proposal, which was dis
Background. Fast and accurate work-up is crucial to ensure the best possible treatment and prognosis for patients with head and neck cancer. The presence or absence of neck lymph node metastases is important for the prognosis and the choice of treatment. Clinical lymph node (N)-staging is done by palpation and diagnostic imaging of the neck. We investigated the current practice of the initial radi
Removal of As(V) by adsorption from water solutions was studied using three different synthetic adsorbents. The adsorbents, (a) aluminium nanoparticles (Alu-NPs, <50 nm) incorporated in amine rich cryogels (Alu-cryo), (b) molecular imprinted polymers (<38 μm) in polyacrylamide cryogels (MIP-cryo) and (c) thiol functionalised cryogels (SH-cryo) were evaluated regarding material characteristics and
Differential measurements of charged particle azimuthal anisotropy are presented for lead-lead collisions at root sNN = 2.76 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, based on an integrated luminosity of approximately 8 mu b(-1). This anisotropy is characterized via a Fourier expansion of the distribution of charged particles in azimuthal angle relative to the reaction plane, with the coefficients v
Here, we describe the development of seven new microsatellite loci from Petaurus breviceps. Together with eight loci from previous studies of gliders, we tested their utility for amplification, multiplexing and polymorphism in two glider species, P. breviceps and P. norfolcensis. Of the 15 loci tested, all were polymorphic in P. breviceps and 12 were polymorphic in P. norfolcensis. Overall, 260 su
Objective: Quality improvement initiatives in emergency medicine (EM) often suffer from a lack of benchmarking data on the quality of care. The objectives of this study were twofold: 1. To assess the feasibility of collecting benchmarking data from different Swedish emergency departments (EDs) and 2. To evaluate patient throughput times and inflow patterns. Method: We compared patient inflow patte
This thesis aims to determine whether there is a human right to education in mother tongue for national minorities in international as well as regional human rights law. Its goal is to contribute to the existing research by evaluating and assessing the available treaties as well as non-binding documents issued by United Nations, Council of Europe and Organization for Security and Co-operation in E
RAINBOW är ett familjeorienterat kognitivt beteendeterapeutiskt behandlingsprogram som ges i gruppformat med parallella grupper för ungdomar 13 - 18 år med bipolärt syndrom (BPS) och deras föräldrar. Den svenska versionen av RAINBOW har nyligen förstärkts med familjesamtal. I föreliggande studie intervjuas tre ungdomar med BPS och deras tre föräldrar med syftet att undersöka upplevelser av deltagaRAINBOW is a family-oriented cognitive behavioral therapy program that is given a in group format with parallel groups for adolescents 13 - 18 years of age with bipolar disorder (BPS) and their parents. The Swedish version of RAINBOW has recently been enhanced with family sessions. In this study, three adolescents with BPS and their three parents are interviewed with the purpose of investigating e
This paper investigates the experience of inspiration by cultural workers in the art field. It takes a closer look at the research within the field so far and compares the everyday view of inspiration with theories researched about it as a concept. Identifying that there is a gap between how the term is used in everyday language and how science within psychology and other academic fields choose to
The current use of pesticides in Burkina Faso has been described as problematic. An alternative to synthetically produced pesticides is products based on naturally occurring substances, e.g. from plants, so-called biopesticides. In this study aqueous and ethanol extracts from Eucalyptus camaldulensis collected at three different geographical locations in Burkina Faso are investigated with regard t
FORMOX™ is a formaldehyde production process, utilizing a metal oxide catalysts. The new generation of plants is pressurized, therefore the turbo charger concept has been developed. This concept deploys a turbine coupled to a compressor, where the turbine recovers a substantial part of the electric power needed to run the compressor, from the outlet of the emission control system unit (ECS) in the
2018 publicerade UNESCO en uppdaterad version av deras rapport International Technical Guidance on Sexuality Education som släpptes 2009. Enligt UNESCO var en av anledningarna till att uppdatera rapporten en utökad medvetenhet om inkludering av genusperspektiv i utbildningen. I denna studie har två av rapporternas så kallade “Key Concepts”, där rekommendationer till ämnen och utformning av sexualu
The aim of this thesis is to discover how ideals about women’s workers’ identity regarding to bildning (workers’ education), class and organization are produced and constructed within the Swedish socialist journal Morgonbris (i.e. Morning Breeze) 1904–1916. The journal was first published within the labor union of women in Sweden, and was later on intertwined with the Social democratic women’s lea
EU som institution har präglats av beskrivningar av att vara ett neo-liberalt projekt. Tidigare forskning anlägger att det dock finns premisser för en ideologisk förändring. Genom konstaterande av samverkan mellan det ekonomiska systemets utfall och dess konstruktion är det möjligt att hypotetisera att finanskrisen som drabbade Europa 2007–2008 kan ha haft en inverkan på den ekonomiska politiken.
In this thesis, the short- and long-term event study methodology are applied in order to assess whether M&As, in the pharmaceutical industry, create any abnormal return for the acquirer. The majority of the previous research finds a negative abnormal return but the short-term event study seems to generate slightly positive abnormal returns outside the U.S. There is a limited amount of research
The aim of this report was to investigate the prominence effect as an underlying reason for saved-lives insensitivity in moral decision-making. Saved-lives insensitivity, the tendency to help fewer rather than more victims, causes unnecessary suffering. Why this tendency occurs is still unknown, but the prediction of this study was that the prominence effect is an underlying mechanism. The promine
Background and Objectives: This research explored the possibility of organisations implementing the work of CIP for the right beneficial reason, or if the implementation was done because the subject is a trend. While CIP-methods are getting more and more popular, it remains in many cases unclear which concepts suit best to what organisation. Having a single organisation implementing a numerous var
This research addresses the role of social capabilities over the growth trajectory of natural resource (NR) rich developing countries through a case study – an analytical narrative using data from various sources – of the Chilean experience since the early 1900s to the present. The paper adopts a novel framework, which identifies four distinct but interrelated dimensions of social capabilities: tr
As the world is becoming more digital, the use of data is rapidly increasing. To protect all EU citizens from privacy and data breaches, the regulations will become stricter. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) will become effective on the 25th of May 2018. This will mean big structural changes for organizations, but it will also mean tougher requirements for gathering and maintaining pe
